“I’m so proud that La Casa Del Habano Kuala Lumpur has reached this landmark of 20 years,” said Kevin Shah, son of late La Casa Del Habano Kuala Lumpur founder Dato’ Kadar Shah. “I’m a second-generation owner and I hope we can become a cigar institution in Malaysia similar to J. J. Fox’s multi-generational U.K. history, for many generations to come.”

“La Casa Del Habano Kuala Lumpur turns 20 this year and we are happy to celebrate the occasion with LCDH family and friends. As what Pacific Cigar Company CEO Dag Holmboe said in his opening address, that ‘it has been a great partnership with Kevin and his family and hope it will continue…’ We certainly look forward to many more anniversary celebrations to come,” said Serena Ong, Country Manager of The Pacific Cigar Company (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd.
